The Magellan GPS 300 is an affordable GPS receiver that features waterproof construction, rubber armoring, and enough memory to record up to 100 favorite locations. The EZstart feature gets you up and running quickly, while other features such as Nav, Go To, and Mark show you where you are, take you anywhere you want to go, and bring you back again.

The GPS 300 has three navigation screens that indicate bearing, heading, distance, and speed readings to identify your position and progress. A steering arrow points you in the right direction, and the Cross Track Error feature identifies distance to the right or left of your desired course line. The Time to Go indicator estimates the remaining time to your destination.

The position screen shows latitude and longitude coordinates and a directional indicator to identify north. In addition, this screen also displays satellite status information, including elevation, number being used, and a tracking indicator.

This receiver runs on two AA alkaline batteries (not included) for 24 hours and comes with a wrist strap and manual.
